".
The functioning of the internal market should be instrumental in helping European Union citizens to overcome the current economic and financial crisis, which is also a crisis of lack of access to credit. It is therefore essential to improve access to cross-border credit, strengthening the functioning of the single market, boosting confidence in this area and avoiding the possibility of speculation. The report by Birgit Collin-Langen on the implementation of Directive 2008/48/EC on credit agreements for consumers aims to harmonise Member States’ legislation to give maximum protection to consumers in this area. It is essential for the legal rules on credit agreements for consumers to be applied uniformly throughout the EU. I voted in favour of this report since we need to encourage cross-border transactions by means of greater legal clarity, better information for citizens on rates and other charges, more effective procedures and greater consumer safety."@en1
